WBS 'getting a bit sick' of losing to Bears
Bears defenseman Dylan McIlrath exchanges words with the Penguins' bench in the second period of Monday's game in Wilkes-BarreThe last time Wilkes-Barre/Scranton played on Dec. 18, the Penguins suffered their worst loss of the season to date.
It was an 8-3 loss to the Bears in Hershey. The Penguins were playing shorthanded due to various players injured or in COVID protocols, and dressed 10 forwards and eight defensemen.
Even given the circumstances, head coach J.D. Forrest wasn't thrilled with his team's effort.
"We really hope that it did sting everybody," he said of that game. "As a staff, it stung. I think the players weren't happy with it."
